This is a closed course but be aware that some drivers will ignore our best efforts.

RACE Rules because we have to have them. You MUST have fun! Everyone of all ages and fitness levels are welcome as long as you can walk 3.1 miles. We love your fur babies but sometimes they do not enjoy being in a crowded street. For their safety and the safety of others we ask that you let your pets cheer you on but not be in the race. If you register as a "walker" you are agreeing that you will not jog or run at anytime during the race.
